Hi!
This a way to do this logic you described in the question, maybe there better ways !
clear
% Dummy data
wp = [[ones(7,1); 2*ones(2,1); ones(8,1)] , randi(3, 17,1) ] ;
% Preallocation and setting first element of the 3rd column to 1
wpDiff = diff(wp) ;
wpNewCol = zeros(length(wp), 1) ;
wpNewCol(1) = 1 ;
% Algorithm
for ii = 2:length(wpNewCol)
if ~ any(wpDiff(ii-1, :))
wpNewCol(ii ) = wpNewCol(ii - 1) ;
else
wpNewCol(ii) = wpNewCol(ii -1) + 1;
end
end
% New wp
new_wp = [wp, wpNewCol]
Hope this helps
